Hypothetical & Backtested Performance
All performance results, portfolio analytics, and simulations shown on this platform are based on hypothetical, backtested, or out-of-sample data.
Key Limitations
- Not Real Trading: Hypothetical and backtested results do NOT represent actual trading, and no money was risked in generating these results.
- No Guarantee: Past performance, whether actual or hypothetical, is NOT indicative of future results. Markets change, and future performance may differ materially.
- Perfect Hindsight: Backtests are designed with the benefit of hindsight and do not account for real-world uncertainties.
- Costs Not Included: Hypothetical results may not reflect the impact of transaction costs, slippage, market impact, fees, taxes, or other real-world trading frictions.
- Survivorship Bias: Historical data may be subject to survivorship bias, data mining, or other statistical artifacts.
- Liquidity Assumptions: Backtests assume perfect liquidity and execution, which may not be achievable in real markets, especially during volatile or illiquid conditions.
Model Limitations & Assumptions
Axiom's AI models, signals, and analytics are based on various market assumptions, historical data patterns, and statistical methods. These models have inherent limitations:
Technical Limitations
- Overfitting Risk: Models may be over-optimized to historical data and fail to generalize to future market conditions.
- Regime Changes: Market regimes can shift unexpectedly (e.g., from low to high volatility, bull to bear markets), rendering historical patterns obsolete.
- Black Swan Events: Models cannot predict or account for rare, catastrophic events (financial crises, pandemics, geopolitical shocks) that fall outside historical norms.
- Data Quality: Models depend on the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of input data. Errors or delays in data can lead to incorrect signals.
- Execution Failures: Real-world execution may fail due to broker outages, network issues, rejected orders, or insufficient liquidity.
- Slippage & Market Impact: Large orders may move markets against you, resulting in worse execution prices than modeled.
Model Assumptions
- Models assume markets are rational, liquid, and continuously tradable.
- Models may assume certain correlations or volatility patterns persist.
- Models may not account for regulatory changes, tax implications, or structural market shifts.
- AI/ML models are "black boxes" and may produce unexpected or unexplainable outputs.
Data Sources & Accuracy
Axiom aggregates data from various third-party sources believed to be reliable. However:
- No Warranty: We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of any data or information provided.

- Independent Verification: Users should independently verify all data and information before relying on it for trading or investment decisions.
